Open house was held Sunday, February 16, at the home of their son and daughter-in-Jaw, Mr. and Mrs. Elwood Truemner. The couple were married in Hensall United Church by Rev. Doan. They were attended by Mrs. Emerson Snider and the late Mr. Snider, sister and brother-in-law of the bride. Mrs, Truemner, the former Verna Jacobe, is the daughter of the late Mr, and Mrs. Solomon Jacobe, Mr, Truemner is the son of the late Mr. and Mrs. Conrad Truemner. Following their marriage, Mr. and Mrs. Truemner farmed on the 14th concession, Hay Township, for 45 years before moving to Zurich in November, 1964. The couple have one daughter, Mrs. Bill (Belva) Fuss, Hensall, and one son, Elwood, on the home farm. They have seven grandchildren.

Winning scores were high single, Miss Karen Kerslake; high Mr, and Mrs,, Hilton Truemner, Zurich, celebrated their 50th wedding anniversary with a family dinner Saturday, Tea 'n topics - Continued from page 8 that the South Huron Hospital a Auxiliary made a donation of $25 to the hospital board to purchase any necessary equipment for the hospital. Of course, the figure should have been $2500. Incidentally, a great deal of credit must be extended to the o Auxiliary for the fine work the ladies do for our local hospital. It is to be hoped that most women's groups throughout the district help the Auxiliary whenever it is possible. * * * I received a telephone call Monday from a lady who suggested that babysitters should have some idea when her employers will be returning home after an evening out. The woman explained she stayed with a youngster from before 8 pm to about 4 am. During that time, she had no idea where to reach the parents in the case of an emergency or the slightest notion when the parents could be expected back. Her payment turned out to be the sum of $1! Surely this is an extreme example of just how inconsiderate some employers can be for their babysitter. It may be some indication of the cause for the acute shortage of qualified babysitters. Speaking of qualified babysitters, it has become apparent there is a group in the district which is contemplating the possibility of offering a course for babysitters. It has been observed there is a shortage of capable babysitters simply because many girls are not familiar with routine procedures where young children and babies are concerned. The course if undertaken, would be designed to teach babysitters how to change diapers, how to feed a baby, how to put a baby to bed safely, ' etc. There would also be information to improve the girl's personal charm and appearance. I have been asked to assist in this matter by determining the • a interest among young babysitters. Any young ladies who would like to enroll in such a course should telephone me or drop me a note. There is no obligation. It is not even necessary to give your name unless you care to do so. I will pass my findings along to the group which would sponsor the course. Members there will decide whether or not it is a sound plan to prepare the course. Don't be shy. The community needs good babysitters and good babysitters need to be trained, informed people. • • • 4 .10 * 4 $ triple, Larry Skinner; low single, Mrs. Howard Johns; low triple, Jim Lynn.
